It’s a Ribbon thing…

In my (sometime futile) attempts to become more organised and give myself more sanity (it drives me crazy at times looking for something I know I have or own but cannot locate!) I am in the midst of trying to establish a sewing area solely dedicated to just that!

Now, I never really thought I had a thing for ribbon… shoes – yes, fabric yo-yo’s – yep, thrifty op shop finds – definitely… but ribbon – I would have said yeah I don’t mind it from time to time….

Well, one look at my discovery of all these spools of ribbon tucked about, stashed here and there (and somewhat forgotten) may just mean I DO have a ‘bit’ of a ribbon thing!

Do you ever see something crafty or fabric related on sale, get fantastic ideas on all the crafty wonders you will create and buy, BUY, BUY? …only to put the fantastic bargains into a drawer or cupboard to be forgotten (not to mention the distinct lack of bargain ethos in such an act)?

Well… in the spirit of acknowledgement …Hi, I am the Spangler and I have (amongst other things) a ‘ribbon thing’… and in my efforts to bring the bargain of the buy back I am thinking my next few projects are going to have to feature some ribbon…

So stay tuned… and in the meantime I’d love to know – What is your ‘thing’? ☺Cheers

I have a thing for ribbon too but I'm a complete sucker for pretty fabrics. So I signed up for the Spring Stashbuster (The T-Shirt Diaries) to get the buying under control for a bit ... Something to consider maybe

PS: You inspired me to do some stash reorganization :) Got my fabrics all reoaganized
